Answer:

18500

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent decrease:

\text{Multiply by }(1-r)=(1-0.09)=(0.91)

Multiply by (1−r)=(1−0.09)=(0.91)

2005: \color{green}{24500}

2005:24500

2006: \color{green}{24500} (0.91) = \color{blue}{22295}

2006:24500(0.91)=22295

2007: \color{blue}{22295} (0.91) = \color{red}{20288.45}

2007:22295(0.91)=20288.45

2008: \color{red}{20288.45} (0.91) = \color{orange}{18462.49}

2008:20288.45(0.91)=18462.49

Lisa [10]

 or
What is 126 divded by 700

The answer is 0.18.

So, that means that 0.18 or 18 percent might be your answer.

Now, lets try 18 percent of 700, to see if we get 126.

18% times 700

The anwer is 126.

$126 is 18 percent of 700.

18 percent of her sale is Destiny's commission.

For this case we are going to assume the following:
m: whole number greater than zero.
n: integer greater than zero.
Where,
n> m
According to these assumptions, the percentage of growth is given by the following formula:
$(n / m) * 100 - 100$
Answer:
